My Story

In celebration of my 102nd Birthday in May 2018, I would be honoured if you would help me reach my target of raising funds of $3,000 towards the amazing and dedicated Researchers at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research.

Supporting Garvan means a lot to me because statistics show that people are living longer, thanks to medical research, and I am living proof at nearly 102 years old! By supporting Garvan I feel I am making a contribution to the increasing longevity of my fellow man.

Garvan's ultimate goal is prevention, treatment or cure of major diseases that affect many people in our community, including our families and friends. Visit Garvan's website for more information www.garvan.org.au

Garvan Institute of Medical Research

Disease. At some point, we all have to face it. Sometimes the fight is quick and easy; sometimes it’s a lifelong struggle. But no matter what fight we face - whether it’s in our bodies, in our loved ones, in our minds or in our hearts, we always hope for a healthier future.

And at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research, we believe that future is within reach for everyone. In fact, we can see it. Through our world-class genomic research, we see a future where your DNA can be used to predict, diagnose and treat and ultimately prevent disease.

Through collaboration across different fields of research, we see a future where countless devastating diseases are no longer a death sentence. Through our never-ending pursuit of new discoveries, we see a future where medicine is revolutionized by understanding your DNA and treatment is personalized to you. This is how we fight at Garvan.
